Interesting.
I'm not a fan of ads to be honest, but for the sake of this experiment by Peakd I'll give it a go. I've changed the settings and turned of the Brave Adblock for this site... don't see any adds yet but perhaps it takes awhile to update or something.
I always assumed ad revenue only paid out on ad 'clicks' and as I don't click on ads, then I'm not sure how much money it will actually bring in. Fair play to the Peakd team for trying something different, and even they don't know if this will work. No harm in trying anyway!
If in a few months it doesn't seem to be working, then it can be discontinued (or I'll turn the ads off again lol)
That's a good attitude to have. You might not like the idea but at least you're open to trying for the good of the community. We won't know if it's worth doing until they try for a few months and see what revenue can be made.
As far as i know you get paid for so many thousand views but a higher rate for actual clicks. I'm no expert but i've read bits and pieces in the past.
I'm glad they are trying and hope it works out well for all of us.
